یادداشت‌ها This fine incense burner held scented materials such as sandalwood and frankincense. They were burned in a brass tray under the pierced lid. The perfume given off helped to create a refined setting for life at court. Court life also required singers, musicians and bottles of wine, all depicted on the roundels on the lid. Metalworkers often transformed objects made from brass by decorating them with sophisticated inlaid surface ornament. This piece was made when the inlay technique was at its peak. For larger motifs, they chiselled out small areas of brass and filled them with thin sheets of silver (as here), gold and copper. They added details were added by chasing the surface of the softer metals and created contrast with a black filler. The results were, for metalwork, an unusually graphic form of decoration, often of great quality.
متن نمونه Note Arabic inscription, around body of vessel.
Tarihsel bağlam Incense burners appear in a variety of forms, zoomorphic, globe-shaped and cylindrical mounted on three legs. Simpler types in bronze date to the 11th-12th century Iran but the separate lid and body is a later feature of the 13th century, as is the more elaborate inlay decoration. There is a similar example in the Nuhad Es-Said Collection.
